Because of the miles of
natural harbours Portsmouth, for many centuries, has been home to the Royal Navy and consequently has a long and lively history. A comprehensive history of the naval port
can be gathered from the historic
dockyard. Portsmouth has a new town full of modern amenities and an
old town. The old town is charming with many mementoes of
its historical past and has a small beach and harbour. Portsmouth is also an important ferry link to the Isle of
White & continental Europe - see below

It is intended
to publish full ferry info and hopefully offer discounts on
crossings to Plus 44 viewers. In order to gauge the level of
